MP Fatoumatta Njai has said she would want to engage Kebba Jallow in a debate showdown over leadership of PPP.
The fearless politician is vying for the top role of PPP secretary general and speaking to The Fatu Network said she would love a debate between herself and challenger Kebba Jallow.
“My wish would have been to have a national debate and talk to our delegates, convince them based on our policies rather than having a campaign team. Because once you have a campaign team, you’re breaking the party,” Njai said.
On her assessment of Jallow who has been interim leader of PPP since last year, the MP said: “He’s been overseeing the party since September but I have not seen any change. But to be honest with you if I had seen any positive changes, it wouldn’t even have occurred to me. I was already an MP in 2018 but it never occurred to me to run for it. But I think now is the time…
“He has great love for the party but in politics it’s not about love and hate. It is about competence. It is [also] not only about commitment. Because no doubt, he is very committed to the party and I would love to have Kebba in my team.”
